At the risk of serious overkill following Mike Huckabee's trail of idiocy these past few weeks, this latest story of stupidity really does warrant attention because it reveals a stark preview of what we should expect over the coming months as he gears up for 2016. Not content ...read more

Bonus points for tenacity to Christian conservatives like Mike Huckabee who keep on effing that chicken. In the face of nationwide bipartisan support for marriage equality, the evangelical far-right can't let go of their outdated sense of morality, nor will they abandon their ...read more

The rest of the 2016 Republican hopefuls have a lot of catching up to do in order to compete with Mike Huckabee's obvious head-start on race-baiting and gay-bashing. We've barely heard from the other clown-car passengers and already Huckabee has navigated his way through at ...read more

Mike Huckabee wants to run for president again for some reason, and he has his sights set on one crowd that he's had some trouble reaching as a white, middle-aged Republican man: The Youths. For his new book, God, Guns, Grits and Gravy -- which sounds like a rejected recipe from ...read more

Maybe Bill O’Reilly had a point: sometimes it’s best just to shut up. Certain members of the GOP can’t seem to help themselves, and much like the strategy the Grand Old Party has embraced, it shows no sign of abating. I’m specifically talking about the War on Women. I know ...read more

What the Republicans really need to convince women that they're not retrograde white men out to trample their sexual and reproductive freedom is strong words from a guy who believes that wives should submit completely to their husbands because the Bible says so. Cue Mike ...read more

By Chez Pazienza: I've been putting off writing something like this for a very long time. True, for quite a while I've kept a running tab of his scathing, subversive and generally balls-out brilliant comments -- the ones that have gotten him justifiably tagged as the lone ...read more

By Chez Pazienza: I've never been one of those people to let a little corporate malfeasance stand in the way of getting what I want. Call me an asshole, but the fact is that I'm cynical and realistic enough to understand that every company is probably engaged in some kind of ...read more
